Quickstart
Go from validated idea to a running Claude Code project in under 10 minutes. This guide walks you through every step from generating your build package to writing your first line of code.
Step-by-step setup
From your report's Ideas page, click Generate Claude Code Package on any idea. The platform will:
- Plan which skill domains your app needs (auth, billing, AI, etc.)
- Generate a
project.mdmaster brief from your validation data - Write individual
skill-*.mdfiles for each domain - Bundle everything with
CLAUDE.md,START_HERE.md, and.env.example
This takes 30–60 seconds. When done, click Download .zip.
Open your terminal and create a new project. Use the app name suggested in your package:
npx create-next-app@latest my-app-name --typescript --tailwind --eslint --app --import-alias="@/*" cd my-app-name
my-app-name with the slug from your downloaded zip (e.g. queue-alert-app).Extract the downloaded .zip file. Copy the entire contents into your project root — not into a subfolder, directly into the root alongside package.json.
Your project should look like this:
Copy the pre-filled .env.example to .env.local:
cp .env.example .env.local
Open .env.local and fill in each value. Every variable has a comment explaining where to get it. At minimum you'll need:
- Supabase — URL and anon key from your Supabase project settings
- Anthropic API key — from console.anthropic.com if your app uses AI
- Stripe keys — if your app has a paid tier
.env.local is in your .gitignore. Next.js adds it by default but double-check before pushing to GitHub.Go to your Supabase project → SQL Editor and run the migrations from the SQL Migrations page. This creates all the tables your app needs.
project.md in your package includes the data model for your specific app. Check it before running migrations so you understand what each table is for.Open Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf in your project root. Then paste this exact prompt:
Read CLAUDE.md, then project.md, then all files in /skills/. Once you've read everything, tell me: 1. What this app does in one sentence 2. What you'll build first 3. Any questions before we start Do not write any code yet.
Your AI will confirm it understands the full project context before writing anything. From there, follow its suggested build order.
